Well greeting from the epicenter of the world. It is day number 9 in this brown/tan color world. Today I did a whole lot of nothing, besides homework, midterm, and a bunch of games of "Threes" (its a card game that is super addictive). So the group is going to the Galilee tomorrow and staying in a hostel for 2 nights. Its going to be pretty awesome and on top of that we will be having class all over there. I also believe that Tuesday morning we are all going to wake up really early and i mean like 4:30 am early, and go see the sun rise on the sea of Galilee.
So since i didn't do much today I'm just going to go off on some rants. The first on is that everything here is brown or sort of brown maybe tan. I mean the buildings the streets everything. Don't get me wrong I love it but I kind of miss, in America, those weird peoples houses that are like purple or pink. But then again I lived in Arizona and everyone thinks it would be awesome if they painted their houses brown or tan. Why? is it to camouflage your house so that no one can see it? okay, okay I'm done with that one on to the next. The past three days I have thought of some crazy truths about God... The first being God's plan of salvation. Salvation is just down right insane, why would God care so much that He would send His son to die for people that chose to turn away from Him. Not only that but His Son was willing to die for humans! I couldn't handle it any more so I came up with the conclusion that because I am finite that I will never understand anything that a infinite God does.
God is so good, please keep all of us in prayer not just me, we all need prayer. We have started to build relationships with the locals, pray that we would be able to shine Christ to those people.
Also keep in prayer me and my lack of faith.
P.S. if any of you need prayer send me an email at GabrielKusner@gmail.com
last thing i don't know if I will have internet tomorrow at the hostile so you guys might have to wait a couple days for the next update.
Oh the pictures are kind of random: Me, My stash, Ryan opening the door for some cute girl from Christ Church, and not my room but the bigger nicer room, and my bibles and Ipod all i need to survive.
OH PRAY THAT WE FIND A LOCUST SO THAT WE CAN EAT IT!!! We have made a pack with a couple people that if we find one we will eat it, and I am so excited to eat one they are pretty big too! Peace be with you all God bless
Love Thomas
